Plastic Apocalypse

National Geographic photographer Randy Olson notes, “There are millions of slum workers around the world involved in an informal plastic waste industry that is “always hiring”. This third-world “gold rush” to process plastic waste is an economy with no end in sight. The planet produced 448 million tons of plastic in 2015 alone—just one year! As much as 6.3 billion tons in total now sits in landfills, in the ocean, or scattered across the landscape of multiple continents. More than 40% of plastics are used just once, and then tossed. Only nine percent of our plastic waste is recycled into other products.”

Bring your June issue of National Geographic to the opening reception; Randy is available for a “magazine signing”.

Welcome to Hollywood

California native Andy Hann notes, “Equal parts circus and train wreck, Hollywood Boulevard has to be one of, if not, the strangest boulevards in America. This exhibition is from an ongoing series that wades through the sites and stories of the quarter mile stretch known as the boulevard of broken dreams. I have no desire to make fun of any individual, but I love to poke fun at society, pop culture.”
